Hi everybody, just wanted to check in and say 'hey'... So, I decided a couple of weeks ago that I didn't want to try sub and started searching franticly again for a different 'miracle cure' to my addiction. I even read about some African plant that can cure addiction and considered it!:eek: I guess I was dealing with the really depressive part of all this cuz I began to slip down into a pretty ugly place and got a little scared... So, after much research and deliberation, I decided to go back on my anti-depressant and HRT (hormone replacement therapy) med's. I've been back on them for about a week and I'm feeling good. It's kinda like the fog is lifting a little more everyday:) I really am smiling, it feels good.

Don't get me wrong, I still have bad days, hours, and minutes sometimes, but the overall feeling taking over my mind is calm and peaceful right now :) (smiling again...)

Basicly what I'm trying to say is- there's hope, if I can get to a point where I can say I'm 46 days free of my demon... then anyone, anywhere, can do it too. It's kinda cool looking at myself from this side... maybe I don't have to hate myself forever...

Hey there. Great news. Its great to hear that things are going well for you. Keep it up!!

Hey jmk

Ditto to this being great news. Smiles.

"It's kinda cool looking at myself from this side..."

You know what? It kind of cool for all of us looking at you from this side also. Chuckles. I am so happy the depression is beginning to lift for you. Yes, there may still be some down times, but soon the good will far outweigh the bad.

What an upbeat post!

Stay positive, stay strong

Thanks so much guys! I feel fabulous again today. I can hear the birds singing outside and the sun is making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.(yes, I said the sun... not some evil drug=) It's going to be another good day. Thank goodness!
To those of you still lurking... it's going to be ok, you'll get through this. Really. Stay close so we can help each other, right?
I honestly, truly, hope that everyone has the very best day they can.
Peace out! :D

That is awesome news!! Congrats to you!! I am on day 48 today, so I think that you and I are right together!!! I know what you mean about the sun making you feel better, it REALLY does!!! :angel: I went on my lunch break today down to the local park and walked/jogged for about 20 minutes and it was great!! I would have NEVER done that 49 days ago :wink:

Once again, CONGRATS to you and you should be very, very proud of yourself!! We CAN do this!!! :wave:

:hugs:

Hey JKM, I just came across this post. What are you on HRT for ? I am curious because i feel like i am having problems with my hormones since the miscarriages. I won't go into explanation right now cause i want to see if this is similar to what i am experiencing.:)
